    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, But rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, VODKA in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming…….WOO HOO, WHAT A RIDE!!

    Think they are the same size actually, and just had a thought too, got a rear dunlop off my bike in the shed, its only done about 200 miles max, but it has a nail in it, bike shop offered to repair but I opted for new one cos of that niggling in the back of my mind…..is it as strong etc, but they assured me itwould be….thinking about getting it repaired and fitted until the front is worn. hmmmmmm
